About this map

Deer Creek and its many branches, including the E Br Deer Cr, weave through this section of the Mississippi Delta along the border of Bolivar and Washington counties. The landscape is defined by its agricultural layout and small, dispersed settlements like Scott, Lamont, and Forkland. This 2015 data illustrates a region where water management remains central to the geography, evidenced by features such as Mound Crevasse and Grassy Lake.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family and community burial sites scattered across the township lines, including Ward Chapel Cem, Williams Chapel Cem, and Buckner Cem. The road network, from Huntington Point Rd to Winterville-Priscilla Rd, connects these rural landmarks to the larger community of Winterville in the south, providing a clear view of the modern Delta's spatial organization.
